Filmmaker John Waters isn't too keen on
Lady Gaga or Michele Bachmann as mall Santas.
Waters opined on the unlikely Santas
during an interview with The
Huffington Post.
“Michele Bachmann would have too many
dumb opinions about children's gifts,” Waters said of how Bachmann
would fare.
“Lady Gaga's the hardest-working
person in show business since James Brown. But she'd change outfits
between each child, so the line would be a lot slower.”
And Divine: “Oh, he would have made a
great Santa Claus. I remember people used to ask if they could sit
in his lap and he'd say, 'Well, I don't really have a lap …' Real
fat people don't have a lap.”
What about the cast of Glee:
“You mean all together in one outfit? A group Santa … even
someone too old to believe in Santa would get back in line to sit in
that lap.”
Waters added the he thought highly of
the Fox musical comedy which is often described as the “gayest show
on television.”
“I think it made every 14-year-old
gay boy safer,” he said.
